• HYBE Founder Bang Si Hyuk’s Recent Appearance Raises Concerns

    Bang Si Hyuk, the founder and director of HYBE, has recently made headlines for all the wrong reasons. His latest public appearance has left netizens worried and speculating about his well-being.

    On May 28, KST, Bang Si Hyuk joined other prominent leaders of South Korean conglomerates in a meeting with United Arab Emirates President Mohamed bin Zayed Al Nahyan during his official state visit to Korea. The occasion was significant, but it was Bang’s attire that stole the spotlight.

    Photographed on his way to the momentous meeting, Bang wore an all-black suit and thick-rimmed glasses.

    However, it was clear that the outfit didn’t quite fit him properly. The drooping shoulders and oversized sleeves made him appear less polished than expected.

    Netizens expressed their concern, linking Bang Si Hyuk’s appearance to his overall health. Some even drew comparisons to South Korea’s President Yoon Suk Yeol, who has also faced scrutiny for ill-fitting clothing choices.

    Here are some of the comments from online communities:

    “He looks like Yoon Suk Yeol!”

    Bang seemed a bit foolish, unlike his usual demeanor.”

    “Unbelievable.”

    “Why does his outfit resemble a sack?”

    “He needs to shed some weight; it’s not healthy.”

    “Is he feeling hot?”

    “He’s like a real-life Oompa Loompa.”

    “I remember him looking slimmer not too long ago.”

    “Honestly, he appears heavier than Kim Jong Un—I’m genuinely concerned.”
